Writing Related Sites:

Here are some links that will help the writers out there. You can find posts on writing on my LiveJournal of course. In addition, I ran a few projects a while back to help writers with queries and plot synopses for their submissions packets. These are either thoughts by published writers on the subjects, or (mostly) actual queries or plot synopses that the writers used that WORKED, that got the book published.

fantasy artists that happen to be
friends of mine.

Patricia Bray is a
fantasy author and a great
friend, best known (so far) for her Devlin series from
Bantam.

Jennifer Dunne is a
cross genre author and a great
friend, best known for (ahem) erotica and paranormal romance
from Ellora's Cave. She also helped design this
webpage.

F. Fiedler is the cover artist of the German edition of The Skewed Throne, Die Assassine. I absolutely love this cover, since I think it captures Varis' deadliness and vulnerability all at the same time.

Ariel
Guzman is an artist and comic-stripper
who's currently engaged in various art projects, all mostly on
schedule. He was also there when
I first started writing . . . yes, way back in the eighth
grade. He designed the JBP logo at the
top of the page.

Steve Stone is
the phenomenal artist that designed the
cover art to The Skewed Throne and The Cracked Throne. Check out his other
artwork, including other fantasy
covers.

The Hard Lemonade
Science Fiction Society is a webpage
dedicated to a little group of friends who happened to
discover

also liked hard lemonade. A society was instantly formed,
which includes much drinking of hard
lemonade . . . and the occasional critique of a fantasy novel

learn the craft of science fiction and fantasy writing. It's
